Garlic Festival is back!
In 2023, The Revelstoke Local Food Initiative took over the Revelstoke Garlic Festival from Stoke the Fire (formerly known as Track Street Growers) for a community celebration of food, creative arts culture and all things garlic!
With record breaking attendance in 2023, we’re back with the garlic-crushing good times! We are pleased to announce the return of Revelstoke’s Garlic Festival on Sunday, September 15th, 2024 at Queen Elizabeth Park!
Festivities will run 11 am – 5 pm at Queen Elizabeth Park. $5 admission at the gate, kids and seniors free! Due to limited parking, the LFI recommends to ride bicycles to the event and politely requests your furry friends to be left at home.
WE ARE NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR GARLIC FESTIVAL 2024. APPLY HERE
The history
After years of the Track Street Growers stewarding this community event, Sarah and Stu knew that they wanted to find a community organization that could continue to grow Garlic Fest into the festival they envisioned. In 2023 the Revelstoke Local Food Initiative (LFI) was pleased to take over the reins to create a fundraising event that would showcase our thriving local food system. We plan on continue to bring all the ingredients that have always made the Garlic Festival so special: an impressive local garlic harvest, live music, local craft sale, kid activities, food, and even a few wild games. The LFI also plans on increasing the vendors, offering more activities and bringing Revy the largest selection of Garlic yet, making it an event you really can’t miss!
Anyone craving involvement as a vendor, sponsor, member of the press, or volunteer should contact events@revelstokelocalfood.com.
